Why are some pages not loading? Why won't my computer boot? Causes of problems and ways to solve them. Inactive hard drive partition

Many network users whose browser selectively or completely blocks Internet resources begin to wonder why the site does not open. There are several reasons why some pages or sites do not load:

• Malicious software;
• Changing parameters in the registry;
• Changing the browser shortcut;
• DNS server problem;
• Changes to the hosts text file.

Malicious software

Viruses that cause the browser to deny access to various resources work as follows: they redirect the user not to the original site, but to a phishing one.

A phishing site is an Internet resource developed by attackers with the aim of stealing personal data for use or sale.

By appearance Such pages are no different from the original ones, but the main difference is the link.

Fortunately, such a virus is easily removed, since in most cases it is prescribed in hosts file. This system resource can be opened using notepad and edited as desired.

Editing the hosts file

Hosts – a document containing information about domains and IP addresses. Many viruses like to be registered here and become the reason why some sites do not open. You can find the file at A:\ Windows\ System32\ Driver\ etc\ hosts, where A – letter designation disk on which Windows is installed.

The document is opened using a regular notepad or WordPad. A “healthy” hosts looks something like this:

This is what an infected document looks like:

Everything that falls under the “garbage” category must be deleted and the changed hosts saved. After restarting the computer, access to Internet resources will reopen, so some sites will load that were not launched before.

But there are also smarter viruses that not only change, but also modify hosts, so sites do not load. In this case, editing is somewhat more difficult. The most common two versions of the problem are:

1. There are two identical documents in the folder at the above path . In this case, you need to pay attention to the file extension. Fake hosts have a .txt extension, when the original one cannot have it.
2. Document missing . This means that the virus has made the file secret.

In order to make hosts visible again, you must:

1. Expand the folder ribbon;
2. Go to the “View” section;
3. In the “Show or hide” category, check the box next to hidden elements:

After setting the parameters, a hidden document should appear in the folder. The file may appear transparent.

If the user does not want to torment himself with editing hosts, then the file can simply be deleted. The Windows operating system will automatically restore the lost system document to original condition.

Sometimes the list with third-party addresses may not be at the beginning, but at the end text document. Once you open hosts, be sure to scroll to the end.

Virus search

Just edit text file It’s not enough - you need to find the source of the problem, why the pages stopped opening in the browser. With a search for malware on personal computer any modern antivirus can handle it, be it Avast, Dr. Web or even online services. It is enough to simply enable in-depth analysis.

After the virus has been detected and removed, you need to clear your browser cache.

DNS Server Problems

Another common reason why some sites do not open is DNS-related failures. To fix this problem you need to:

1. On the control panel, go to the Internet section;
2. Go to network management;
3. Open properties and in the “Network” section launch the fourth Internet protocol;
4. Find lines with DNS address. Just in case, copy them into a notepad;
5. In the same fields, enter the values: 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4;
6. Save changed settings.

Sometimes such changes lead to the fact that some of the sites provided by the provider do not load.

Registry problems

Problems in the registry are usually also caused by malware. software. To clean it, follow the instructions:

• Call the “Run” line using the combination Win + R. In the window, enter the regedit command and click “Ok”:

• In the new registry window, follow the link

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows;

• We are looking for the Applnit_DLLs section. This line should not have any specified parameters. If there are third-party inscriptions, then we erase and save the accepted changes.

There is also alternative way Registry cleaner - CCleaner.

CCleaner free application, whose task is to optimize Windows operating systems.

The program is quite easy to use and allows you to fix problems on why Internet pages won’t load in a few clicks:

1. Install and launch the program on your computer;
2. Go to the registry section;
3. A list appears in a new window possible problems. Check the boxes next to everyone;
4. The PC scanning procedure will start. It lasts 5-10 minutes. After the problem is detected, click on the fix icon.

Clearing the DNS cache

Often, some sites on the network stop working due to cache problems. In this case, regular cleaning will help. To do this:

• We launch the executing window and type cmd, which initiates the launch of the console;
• We enter three commands in turn:
  1. Ipconfig/flushdns;
  2. Ipconfig/registerdns;
  3. Netsh winsock reset.
• After such commands, the cache will be cleared. The user only needs to restart the personal computer and try again to access the site that was previously inaccessible.

Shortcut changes

Another unpleasant thing that viruses can do is add additional addendums to the browser shortcut. For this reason, the browser will send the user to unwanted resources or block sites altogether.

The problem is solved quite simply:

1. Right-click on the browser shortcut;
2. Go to the properties section;
3. We look at the line “Object”. In its normal state it looks like this:

A:\User\AppData\ Local\Browser\Application\browser.exe

1. If there are third-party inscriptions, then simply delete them and save the changes.

Problems with the proxy server

Due to the activity of malicious software on a personal computer, the proxy server settings may change. Reconfiguring the utility will help solve the problem. As an example, let's look at the well-known Opera browser, but the principle of changing settings is similar to all other browsers:

• Launch the browser and go to the settings section by pressing Alt+P;
• In the “Browser” tab, look for the network section and click “Change proxy server settings”:

• A window with Internet properties will pop up. Click “Network Settings”:

• If the user is not using any proxy servers, then the normal default setting is as follows:

• If the proxy server is set manually, but the owner is sure that he did not do this, it means that malicious software is operating on the computer. It must be found and neutralized using any antivirus application.

What to do if a specific site does not open

It often happens that all Internet resources are working normally, but the browser does not open a specific page. However, changing the browser does not have any effect. At first glance, it may seem that these are problems on the site or are being technical work, but by running mobile version browser, the page opens.

To solve the problem, the page compression mode is used. To do this, open the menu section in the Opera browser and look for the compression mode in the line:

In older versions, this function was called Opera turbo. The essence of its work is that in this mode the user goes to the site through special proxy servers. If the problem is not resolved, then it is likely that the site is not working properly. technical reasons.

Another reason why the site does not open may be ban externalIP-addresses from the resource hosting. There is no fault of the user here, since the hosting provides an automatic function for blocking addresses that were used for DDOS attacks. In this case, it is enough to wait for the unban. This takes from a week to a month.

Why don't sites open? (video)

After the browser's functionality is restored, the user should try to avoid new encounters with malicious software. Fortunately, this is done quite simply with the help of modern antiviruses. If you were unable to restore access to Internet resources, then do not forget about service centers, where specialists will carry out diagnostics, identify the problem and solve it, restoring the functionality of the browser.

The topic that I want to discuss in this article is very popular and talking about it in detail so that you understand how and what to do is not so simple. But still, I will try to describe possible ways What to do if Windows 7 does not boot on your laptop or computer. We will also find out why this could happen?! The task ahead of us is not an easy one, namely, to correct the current situation, but there is no need to be afraid. Just follow the clear instructions and everything will be great! Some points may be suitable for other operating systems, but I will focus on Windows 7.

Dear reader, if you really want to solve the problem, then I strongly recommend reading the article in full, and then drawing some conclusions. I cannot talk about all the nuances in one paragraph.

Safe Mode and Last Known Good Configuration

This is a must try! Reboot the computer, press the F8 key continuously.

Attention! In Windows 8, login to safe mode happens a little differently, and therefore it is better to follow the link below to find out all the details. In the list that appears, we are interested in the item called “Last good configuration(additionally)". Select and press Enter.

About how to enter safe mode on different systems:

What to do if the information above did not help you? We repeat the steps described in the previous paragraph, but select “Safe Mode”.

Next, you can make a choice: fix the problem due to which Windows 7 does not boot manually, or try to do it in semi-automatic mode. Usually I do everything manually, for example, if Windows does not boot after installing the drivers, then I delete the drivers and try to boot. I think you understand that manual method requires more knowledge from you, so Windows offers you another option, which I will describe below.

If everything loads, go to the Start menu, Control Panel, System and Security. In the “Support Center” tab, click on the inscription “Restore the computer to a previous state.” See the “Run System Restore” button? Great, then you've come to the right place.

Now click it and follow the instructions.

Next, you will need to select a restore point. In my case, I am asked to select a point on the 23rd, and now the calendar shows the 29th. Therefore, you need to click on “Search for affected programs” to find out what actions you will need to take after recovery.

So, you have become familiar with the affected software during system recovery and can now close this window. After closing the window, click "Next".

If you were unable to enter safe mode to restore Windows operation, then there is no need to despair. Below we will look at another method.

Note: at the very beginning, when Windows 7 was just coming out, there was one strange glitch that you might have too. When you turn on the computer, the welcome screen follows and a black screen appears. As I remember, it seemed like there was still an arrow, but nothing else was visible. The cure was very simple - go into safe mode and restart the computer as usual. After that I was able to log into my account without any additional manipulations with Windows.

You may need to reinstall Windows

This option should be considered when you have tried to revive Windows, but all attempts have produced no results.

The very first thing that comes to mind for many, and for me too, is reinstalling Windows 7. But this method, you see, is very long, and if you are a busy person, then access to the computer should be almost constant. Reinstallation is suitable for those who have a lot of free time, or do not have time to understand faster methods, or for those who will not be helped by any of the recovery methods I listed below operating system Windows.

Dwell in detail on Windows installation I won’t, because I wrote about this on my blog:

Here brief instructions: since you do not have access to the desktop, go to the BIOS, look for the Boot or Advanced BIOS Features tab, or search for it yourself. Then in it we find the line “1st Boot Device", set the value to CD-ROM. What have we done? What we did is that now when the computer boots, it will boot from the disk that is installed in your CDRom, and not from hard drive. After turning it on, when the inscription “Press any key...” appears on a black background, press any button and get into the Windows installation wizard. Then follow the instructions on the screen.

You can read more about how to boot from disk in my article: “”.

I decided to talk about the installation at the very beginning, because if you were going to reinstall Windows, then perhaps this is some kind of sign to implement it))). But as I said at the very beginning, we will now try to bring your Windows back to life without reinstalling it.

System Restore

First of all, you can use the function that is in the installation disk “System Restore”. I will give an example Windows systems 7, but if you have a different system, then this is not a reason to think that you cannot do it on your system. The names of the buttons may differ, but the principle remains the same.

So for this procedure we need installation disk with Windows or its image (can be downloaded on the Internet). If you are unable to download the image or do not have a disk, then write to me by email [email protected] or contact your friends who have already installed Windows themselves.

If you don’t have a working disk drive or don’t have one at all, then the article “” will help you create a bootable flash drive.

When you have a Windows distribution, insert it into the drive and restart the computer. If the BIOS is configured for installation, you will see the line:

When it appears, press any key.

If it is not there or Windows boots as usual, then you need to make manipulations in the BIOS. Namely, set loading priorities. Usually in the BIOS settings it is set to hard drive, since this is where your Windows is installed.

In order for the computer to start booting from the disk that is in your drive, you need to go into the BIOS and specify CDRom as the first device to boot. I have already talked about this above, if you have not read this point, then it’s time to do so.

So, you pressed any key, now a window will appear where you click “Next”.

In the next window you need to click “System Restore”.

A search will occur. installed systems. If you have one system installed, then there will be one operating system in the list. Select it and click Next.

Often on at this stage A message may appear asking you to restore your system. If this message is displayed on your screen, then click “Fix and restart”. After that, try to log into your account.

If the message does not appear, then in the next window you select your system and click “Next”.

After this, a window will appear where you can select system recovery methods.

– automatic solution problems.

System Restore – you can use this method, but on the condition that this function was turned on.

Restoring a system image – if you have Windows image for recovery.

Command line– using certain commands you can revive Windows. This method will be discussed further.

Now click “Startup Repair”. Now you need to wait a bit for the utility to try to automatically find the problem and solve it.

System Restore via Command Line

Then enter and press Enter.

A list of commands that can be used in this utility will appear; now you need to enter: Bootrec.exe /FixMbr and press Enter.

Now enter . exe / , then clicking on Enter. Next, exit the utility by typing exit and pressing Enter. Now you can try to log into your account, since the recovery work is completed.

You can also try updating the boot code by entering the command bootsect /NT60 SYS. Then leave as a team Exit.

If the above commands did not help you, then go to the command line and enter Bootrec.exe /RebuildBcd. Using this command, you will scan your hard drive to find the systems installed on it.

When the scan is finished, a list of installed operating systems on your hard drive will appear. To add it to the download list, click Y And Enter. After successful completion of the operation, enter Exit and press Enter.

So, we have dealt with the command line. In principle, this should help to get your system to boot.

Inactive hard drive partition

This situation does not occur often, but it is still necessary to talk about it, otherwise the article can be said to be truncated. Let me give you an example, after which you will understand what's what.

Let's say you have several Windows operating systems installed on your computer, which are installed on different hard drives. If the sections hard drives assign incorrect attributes, then you will have problems loading a particular version of Windows.

To check or fix this, you can use the Acronis Disk Director boot disk to change the partition attributes. So, download and burn boot disk Acronis Disk Director and boot from it. How to do this? Insert the disc into the drive, restart the computer, and it will begin booting from the disc in the drive. But before that, check your download priorities. There should be a CDRom, just like when installing Windows. We have already talked about this in this article above.

When the program loads, pay attention to the checkboxes that are on the hard drive partitions.

In the image above we see that the checkboxes are on the second partitions of the hard drive. You need to make sure that these checkboxes are on the first sections. We got to practice ;). You need to click on each first partition of the hard drive right click mouse and select “Mark as active”.

A message should appear where you click “OK”. This is what it looks like after the whole procedure:

Now all that remains is to click on the “Run” checkbox, wait for the operation to complete and restart the computer. Be sure to remove the disc from the drive.

Hardware problems, BIOS and viruses

Hard drive. If your system unit, or rather, the hard drive makes suspicious sounds: clicking or tapping, that is, there is a possibility that the hard drive needs to be replaced. To make sure of this, you need to open the cover of the system unit, turn on the computer and listen to work hard disk. Also check the connection of the wires with hard drive. It is possible that the wires have become disconnected and the computer cannot see the hard drive.

If you suspect that the problem is with the hard drive, then you need to copy all important data to another medium. Otherwise, you may lose them completely.

BIOS. Go to BIOS settings and put the hard drive first so that the download starts from there. Above we looked at an example where we set up a CDROM; you do the same with a hard drive. Just don’t forget to save the changes in the BIOS by pressing the F10 key.

The second method – you won’t believe it, but it actually works! Just go into the BIOS and, without changing anything there, exit, saving the changes that in fact did not exist (by pressing the F10 button). I personally once fixed my friends’ laptop this way, and when they asked me how I did it, my answer was: “Magic and nothing more 😉.” So give it a try, maybe everything will be much easier than you think.

Viruses. Sometimes viruses prevent Windows from booting. If there are viruses on your computer, you need to scan the entire disk for viruses. Here are articles that will be useful to you: “” and “”.

Of course, if you check your hard drive for viruses, you will need to disconnect it and connect it to another computer, since in your case Windows will not load. Or you can use special boot programs, with which you can check your computer for viruses even if you cannot boot your Windows. Here are a couple of them: and.

Attention! There are cases when, after installing updates, Windows 7 stopped loading! Therefore, you may want to try uninstalling recent updates that were installed before the Windows boot problem occurred.

Important! If you see a specific error on your screen, I recommend using a Google or Yandex search. You can enter into the search not only the error code, but also the words that are used in it. Thus, you will save your time searching for the problem and its solution.

Important! If the system unit makes squeaks when turned on, then you need to determine the problem by this squeak. Ask how? Here's an article on this topic: "".

That's all I wanted to say. The article turned out to be long, and I sincerely hope that at least one of the methods I described helped you.

Says a lot of unnecessary things, but there is useful information for you:

Hi all! In this article we will talk about a very untidy problem - when the site is displayed incorrectly. It happens when the page is not loaded completely, and some elements are not loaded after a while. This may cause both images and scripts with text blocks to stop loading.

Further solutions will help you understand the problem on any Windows operating system (7, 8.1, 10 and even XP). By the way, the same problems arise on smartphones and tablets - I’ll talk about the solution below. Usually if in mobile browser Pages do not load completely or they are displayed incorrectly, this may indicate a malfunction of the router.

We'll look at everything possible solutions by browser: Opera, Chrome, Yandex Browser. If you are using Microsoft Edge or Internet Explorer, and if you have any difficulties and my recommendations do not help, then write about it below the article.

HELP! If any difficulties arise, don’t be shy and write in the comments. My team or I will help you.

Causes and initial solutions

First of all, you need to think about the reason and why the browser does not fully load the site. To begin with, you can simply restart the browser - close it by clicking on the cross and launch it again. It happens that the problem is related to a glitch in the system or the router itself. So we simply reboot both the computer and your home router.

Almost all routers have a reset button - just press it twice and it should turn off and on again. If there is no such button, then you can safely unplug it from the outlet and then install it back.

Also remember if you have previously installed any programs or applications that could theoretically interfere with the operation of the browser. This also applies to extensions. Especially any ad blockers (Adblock, Adguard, AdMuncher), which can work crookedly and block everything. Go to your browser, find the extensions section and disable everything.

Clearing browser cache and extensions

The cache allows you not to load some elements or even entire pages of the site. But sometimes when it fails, it can result in you having this problem. So we'll just go in and clean it out now.

Google Chrome

Make sure that the block shown in the image below is selected and click on the delete button. After this, restart your browser.

Now you need to disable additional extensions. I would advise turning everything off, since you don't know which extension is interfering. In the same section of the menu you need to select “Extensions”. Then switch the sliders to “off” mode.

Opera

Now click on the clear button.

To turn off extensions in the same menu, you need to go to “Extensions” twice. I advise you to turn everything off.

Firefox

Click on the three lines on the right top corner window, then select “Settings”. In the left menu, click on the “Privacy and Protection” block. After that, scroll down a little to the “History” section and click on the “Delete History” button. A window will pop up - you need to select the delete button.

Open the menu and click "Add-ons", and then on the left side click "Extensions". Disable everything you don't need, but everything is better.

Yandex

WITH right side Click “Clear history”. Next, a window will open where you only need to click one button.

To disable extensions, just below in the menu you should see working extensions. Right-click on any one, and then select “Configure extensions.” Now we disable unnecessary and suspicious ones.

Suspicious programs and viruses

Even if you don’t remember installing something, I advise you to check it. Because sometimes applications are installed in the background with other programs.

Go to “Programs and Features” and set the sort by installation date

After doing this, you should see programs that were installed most recently. If you see something suspicious, delete it. This also applies to applications that work with virtual local networks.

Next, you need to scan your PC for viruses. If you don’t have an antivirus program yet, you can download any to take advantage of the free one trial version. There is also on the Internet free antiviruses like Avast (you can use it).

The next step is to check unnecessary programs in startup. To do this, we will use the CCleaner program.

First, clean your computer. This cleaning, by the way, clears the entire cache on all browsers. So in the future you can do just that. Next, go to the “Register” and correct errors. At the very end, go to “Service” - “Startup” - turn on sorting to see which programs are loaded along with the system.

You need to turn off everything unnecessary that you definitely don’t need. Look carefully - this is especially true for applications without a publisher. Turn off any bootloaders. You can leave only the antivirus. Next, restart the computer.

MTU changes

MTU (maximum transmission unit) is maximum quantity bytes in a block that is transferred at a time. Sometimes given value too large and interferes with the loading of pages. Therefore, it can be made a little smaller. Often this problem is solved with 3G, 4G Internet, which is connected to the router.

First, you need to go to the router's Web configurator. This is done quite easily and I wrote a separate one about this. We go there and go inside the router. I will say right away that we need to change it and set it a little smaller. For example, if your value was 1500, then we make it less by 50 or 60. Within 100. That is, the maximum reduction is to 1400.

ATTENTION! After you change the value to another, you will need to click on the save settings button. Otherwise, the MTU will not change.

TP-Link

“Network” – “WAN”. Some firmwares are hidden additional information- this is a bug. Just click just below the Connection Type settings if you don't see the MTU line.

Sometimes computer users may encounter unpleasant situations when something does not work for reasons unknown to them. A common situation is when there seems to be Internet access, but pages in the browser still do not open. Let's see how to solve this problem.

If the site does not launch in the browser, this is immediately obvious - a similar inscription appears in the center of the page: "Page unavailable", "Cannot access the site" etc. This situation can happen by following reasons: lack of Internet connection, problems with the computer or the browser itself, etc. To fix such problems, you can check your PC for viruses, make changes in the registry, hosts file, DNS server, and also pay attention to browser extensions.

Method 1: Check your Internet connection

A trivial, but very common reason that pages do not load in the browser. The first thing you need to do is check your Internet connection. An easy way is to launch any other installed browser. If the pages launch in any web browser, then there is an Internet connection.

Sometimes the system crashes, causing the necessary browser processes to close. To allow this problem, it will be enough to restart the computer.

Method 3: Check the shortcut

Many people launch their browser from a shortcut on their desktop. However, it has been noted that viruses can replace shortcuts. The next lesson talks about how to replace an old shortcut with a new one.

Method 4: Check for malware

Common reason incorrect operation browser is the action of viruses. You need to conduct a full scan of your computer using an antivirus or special program. How to check your computer for viruses is discussed in detail in the following article.

Method 5: Cleaning extensions

Viruses can replace installed extensions in the browser. That's why good decision The problem will be removing all add-ons and reinstalling only the most necessary ones. Next steps will be shown using Google Chrome as an example.

Method 6: Use automatic parameter detection

You can also configure the proxy server in the browser itself. For example, in Google Chrome, Opera and Yandex.Browser actions will be almost the same.

In the Mozilla Firefox browser

In Internet Explorer, perform the following steps:

Method 7: Check the registry

If the above options do not help solve the problem, then you should make changes to the registry, since viruses can be registered in it. On licensed Windows record value "Appinit_DLLs" should usually be empty. If not, then it is likely that a virus is registered in its parameter.

Method 8: changes in the hosts file

Method 9: DNS server address changes

Method 10: Changes in DNS Server

So we looked at the main options for action when pages do not open in the browser, but the Internet is available. We hope your problem is now resolved.

Problems with the browser when it does not open pages are familiar to many users. It seems that you paid for the Internet on time, and all the parameters were configured correctly, but the application refuses to follow the links.
There are cases when sites do appear before the user’s eyes, but they do so very, very slowly. Sometimes the problem relates exclusively to video files or images posted on resources World Wide Web. A common situation is when only one browser does not want to launch Internet pages, while other browsers perform their functions properly.

The first task that arises before the user is to find out the root cause of this problem.

Experts identify sources of problems due to which Internet browsers may not be able to access all sites at the same time:

• Registry;
• Hosts file;
• Virus and antiviruses;

Don't forget that sometimes the reason is hidden in the TCP IP protocol or in static routes.

Registry check

If you encounter difficulties while opening web pages, the first thing you should pay attention to is the registry. Check it and if there are errors, edit its contents.
How to open the registry? In theory, you can search by system disk. However, a faster option is to get there through the command execution utility. Press Win + R, then type regedit and confirm with the Enter key.
An editor will appear on your screen. Check out what the registry contains. On the left are the sections, one of them is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Sequentially select the following subsections: first SOFTWARE, then Microsoft, followed by Windows NT, then CurrentVersion and finally Windows. On the right you will see the parameters. You should be interested in the AppInit_DLLs parameter. Make sure its value is empty. If it represents a file path, then erase all the text. Editing is available using context menu, launched with the right mouse button.

Try to get to the AppInit_DLLs parameter and the HKEY_CURRENT_USER section. It should also remain empty. If the value still had to be edited, then restart the computer. In most cases, this algorithm is an effective solution.

Hosts file

Testing for problems associated with this file can be done using Skype programs. If it works, but one or all browsers do not, then you need to change the text in the hosts file. In practice, this problem only affects certain sites, so check a few different links.
You can find this file at this path: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc. Its peculiarity is the absence of any extension.

For normal operation, the last line must contain the following text: “127.0.0.1 localhost”. If there are further certain records, then they were definitely created artificially. It is highly likely that this was done by a virus. Therefore, erase all unnecessary text and reboot the system. Launch the site in a web browser. If the problem does not go away, go to the next step.

DNS problem

If the browser does not open pages precisely because of DNS, then this reason can be corrected quite easily. Launch the command line via Start – System Tools or by entering the command “cmd” in the search bar of the Start menu.
To do this, several packets are sent towards the server of any working site. Experts call this action “ping.” And all because the command is called ping. For example, enter ping google.com and press Enter.

If in response you received several lines with the parameters “number of bytes”, “time” and “TTL”, then everything is fine. If a message appears that the site could not be detected, it is probably all about the DNS. You can be 100% sure of this by introducing ping commands 8.8.8.8. Got a normal response? If yes, then the problem is in DNS.

This inaccuracy in the properties of the Internet connection is corrected. Disable automatic filling and enter the value manually. Enter in place of the main one DNS server value 8.8.8.8, and in place of the alternative - 8.8.4.4. Afterwards the Internet should work the same way as before.

Viruses

The normal operation of browsers may be interfered with malware. As a rule, in the presence of viruses, Skype, just as in the case of the previous problem, will continue to fully perform all functions.

Viruses are often aimed at specific programs. Some of them are intended for specific browsers. At the same time, it is very difficult for the user to independently detect the presence of a Trojan or other type of virus on his computer. Therefore, without help special utilities can't get by.

A program called antimalware, which effectively fights malicious files, can be a savior for the user. Most of these programs are not free. More precisely, certain functionality is available to everyone, but full version Only its buyers receive the program. Only purchased and timely updated antiviruses can guarantee 100% protection.

This type of virus like Trojan.Winlock is specifically blocked network access And certain functions web browsers: Opera, Chrome, Yandex, etc. Many users have already encountered an unpleasant situation when a request appears on the screen to enter an SMS in order to unlock further work with the browser. It is almost impossible to close either the deposit or the window with a standard click on the “cross”. You will have to use the help of the Task Manager. Be sure to scan your system with an antivirus after this.

Sometimes malware blocks popular sites. This difficulty is often encountered by users of VKontakte and other social networks. They block viruses and sites that host anti-virus content.

Thus, the only right decision for the user is to take care of computer protection in advance. Popular antiviruses are the best PC protectors. Although they are paid, they cope with their functions with “five plus” results. Experts advise not to save money on information security, especially for those who have important data stored on their computer.

Free antivirus programs Suitable for those who do not use a computer as their work tool.

Antiviruses and firewall

Often, antiviruses themselves prevent you from accessing certain sites. And although such blocking is a security measure, if you really want to click on the desired link, you can remove it. By the way, standard tools Security software such as firewalls also tend to impose such restrictions on users.

Overcoming this limitation is done by setting up an antivirus program.

As for the firewall, its configuration in most cases is the work of the system administrator.

Static routes
